\chapter{Introduction}


Here is an overview for the modules in the \theme\ standard library:
\begin{itemize}
\item
  Module \code{core} includes basic functionality of the
  \theme\ environment and it should generally be always included by
  the user source code.
\item
  Module \code{platform-specific-impl} is a platform-dependent
  module. It implements forms \code{guard-general},
  \code{guard-general-nonpure}, and
  \code{guard-general-without-result}.
\item
  Module \code{core-forms} defines some basic control structures as
  macros.
\item
  Module \code{core-forms2} defines some basic control structures that
  depend on the platform-specific features.
\item
  Module \code{list-utilities} implements basic list operations.
\item
  Module \code{string-utilities} implements basic string operations.
\item
  Module \code{basic-math} defines basic arithmetical operations for
  integer and real numbers.
\item
  Module \code{bitwise-arithmetic} implements basic bit operations.
\item
  Module \code{promise} implements promises (delayed evaluation).
\item
  Module \code{stream} implements streams.
\item
  Module \code{iterator} implements purely functional iterators.
\item
  Module \code{nonpure-iterator} implements nonpure iterators
  analogous to the pure ones.
\item
  Module \code{object-string-conversion} implements readable string
  forms of the \theme\ objects.
\item
  Module \code{bytevector} implements utilities for bytevectors.
\item
  Module \code{files} defines primitive classes for input and
  output ports and operations to open and close them.
\item
  Module \code{text-file-io} defines basic operations for text file IO.
\item
  Module \code{binary-file-io} defines basic operations for binary file IO.
\item
  Module \code{console-io} implements console input and output.
\item
  Module \code{system} implements some OS level functionality.
\item
  Module \code{rational} implements rational numbers.
\item
  Module \code{complex} implements complex numbers.
\item
  Module \code{real-math} implements operations between real and
  rational values and real scientific functions.
\item
  Module \code{math} implements the numerical tower and generic
  scientific functions. It is a frontend to other mathematical
  modules.
\item
  Module \code{extra-math} implements wrapper procedures for many
  standard C mathematical functions. Some methods using the wrappers
  are implemented, too.
\item
  Module \code{posix-math} implements wrapper procedures for some
  POSIX C mathematical functions not present in the C standard. Some
  methods using the wrappers are implemented, too.
\item
  Module \code{matrix} implements matrices.
\item
  Module \code{dynamic-list} implements dynamically type checked
  lists.
\item
  Module \code{singleton} implements singletons.
\item
  Module \code{hash-table} implements hash tables.
\item
  Module \code{hash-table2} implements hash tables.
\item
  Module \code{statprof} provides an interface to the guile
  \code{statprof} profiler.
\end{itemize}

Modules \code{hash-table}, \code{extra-math}, and \code{posix-math}
work only for the target platform Guile.

When we document procedures and methods we use the notation
\newline

\shortprocdef{proc-name}{arg-type-1 ... arg-type-n}{result-type}

to indicate that method \code{method-name} takes arguments of types
\code{arg-type-i} and returns a value of type \code{result-type}.

When we document methods we use the notation
\newline

\methoddefwithvalue{method-name}{arg-type-1 %
  ... arg-type-n}{result-type}{procedure}

that the method is additionally equal to the procedure
\code{procedure}.

The notation
\newline

\abstmethoddef{method-name}{arg-type-1 ... arg-type-n}{result-type}

means that the method only raises an exception and its purpose is to
help in the static dispatch of the result type.  We write ``pure'' in
a procedure definition to indicate that the procedure is pure and
``static'' to indicate that the method is dispatched statically.


\chapter{Exceptions}
\label{ch:exceptions}


Error handling in \theme\ is based on exceptions that resemble Scheme
R7RS \cite{shinn2017} exceptions. The module \code{core} in the
standard library defines custom primitive class \code{<condition>},
which represents Scheme exceptions in the runtime target environment.
Note that the exceptions do not have to be objects of class
\code{<condition>}. Exceptions are raised with procedure \code{raise}
(or procedures using \code{raise}). Exception handlers are defined
by the following forms:
\begin{itemize}
\item \code{guard}
\item \code{guard-nonpure},
\item \code{guard-without-result}
\item \code{guard-general}
\item \code{guard-general-nonpure}
\item \code{guard-general-without-result}
\end{itemize}
See section \ref{sec:core-forms_macros} and \ref{sec:platform_macros}
for the guard expressions and \ref{sec:core_control_simpleproc} for
raise expressions.

The \theme\ runtime environment and
standard library create runtime environment (RTE) exceptions. An RTE
exception is an object of class \code{<condition>} having
\textit{kind} and \textit{info}. \textit{Kind} is a symbol that
defines the kind of the exception. \textit{Info} is an association
list containing properties (pairs) with a key (a symbol).

When the exception info is enabled the runtime environment adds some
extra information into the exceptions it generates. When a
\theme\ program is run the flag is initially \false\ and it is set to
\true\ when the main procedure is called. The reason for this
behaviour is that the \theme\ objects in the exception info could
cause ugly output with the default Guile error handler.
When the info is disabled then exceptions raised by the
\theme\ runtime environment contain only the exception kind (a
symbol). Note that this is not true for the exceptions raised by the
Scheme code called by the runtime environment.
The exception info can be enabled with procedure
\code{enable-rte-exception-info} and disabled with procedure
\code{disable-rte-exception-info} (section
\ref{sec:core_control_simpleproc}).


A \theme\ program can be terminated with procedures \code{exit} or
\code{raw-exit} (section \ref{sec:core_control_simpleproc}). In
general, you should normally use \theme\ procedure \code{exit} unless
you exit the program in a toplevel expression in a script.


\chapter{Numerical Tower}
\label{ch:numerical-tower}


The \theme\ Standard Library implements a numerical tower similar to
Scheme. Easiest way to import it is to import module
\code{(standard-library math)}. Numerical types \builtin{<integer>}
and \builtin{<real>} are built in the \theme\ language and types
\builtin{<rational>} and \builtin{<complex>} are implemented by the
standard library.

We say that a rational number is in the \defterm{simplified form} if
its denominator is positive and the greatest common divisor between
the numerator and the denominator is 1. Additionally we require that
if the numerator is 0 the denominator is 1.

Terms \nan, inf, and -inf mean the exceptional floating point
values (not a number, positive infinity, and negative infinity)
defined by the IEEE 754 standard. If your system does not support
these the behaviour of the procedures in case they are specified to
return an exceptional value is undefined.

Numbers belonging to classes \builtin{<integer>} and \code{<rational>}
are called \defterm{exact} and numbers belonging to classes
\builtin{<real>} and \code{<complex>} \defterm{inexact}. The terms
\defterm{exact 0} and \defterm{exact 1} mean the integer and rational
values 0 and 1.

When the results of the real math functions in module \code{real-math}
are complex or not defined these procedures usually return an
exceptional value. When the optimized real functions are used (this is
on by default) the complex value is not actually computed but the
exceptional values are returned directly.

When applied to integer or real numbers the equality predicate
\code{equal?} follows the rules for Scheme predicate \code{eqv?} in
the R7RS standard \cite{shinn2017}. The equality predicate \code{=}
follows the rules for Scheme predicate \code{=} in R7RS for integer
and real numbers. Predicate \code{=} returns \true\ when its arguments
are numerically equal.

This procedures is a built-in
parametrized procedure that works as the corresponding procedure in Scheme. The argument
\procarg{body} is a procedure taking a single procedure argument.
If the body procedure invokes this argument the continuation is
transferred into the continuation of the
\code{call-with-current-continuation} expression.
Variable \code{call/cc} is defined as an alias to
\builtin{call-with-current-continuation}.


\procdef{call-with-current-continuation-nonpure} \\

\end{arglist}


\noprocresult


\procpurity{nonpure}

not guarantee the purity of the Scheme procedure \code{eof-object}.

\end{syntaxblock}


Form \keyword{guard-general} evaluates the expression
\syntaxvarf{body}.  If an exception is raised the variable
\syntaxvarf{variable-name} is bound to the exception object and
expression \syntaxvarf{exception-handler} is evaluated and its value
is the value of the \keyword{guard-general} expression. If no
exception is raised during the evaluation of the body its value is
returned as the value of the \keyword{guard-general} expression.  Note
that the exception handler may itself raise exceptions in which case
the surrounding exception handler evaluates them.
Both the exception handler and body must be pure expressions.
Their types may not be \code{<none>}. The exception handler must never
return.


\macrodef{guard-general-nonpure}

exception handler may be nonpure.

This from is like \code{guard-general} except that the result type of

the form is \code{<none>}, too.

  \indexedsyntaxvar{else-expr}{1}, \sldots,
  \indexedsyntaxvar{else-expr}{p} \srp
\end{syntaxblock}


Each condition must have type \builtin{<boolean>}.
The type of each \indexedsyntaxvarf{clause}{k} is the type of
\indexedsyntaxvarf{expr}{k,m(k)} (the last expression in the clause).
If \syntaxvarf{else-clause} is present its type is the type of
\indexedsyntaxvarf{else-expr}{p} (the last expression in the else clause).
If \syntaxvarf{else-expression} is defined the type of the
\keyword{cond} expression is the union of the types of each clause and
the type of the \syntaxvarf{else-clause}. Otherwise the type of the
\keyword{cond} expression is \builtin{<none>}.

Each \indexedsyntaxvarf{condition}{k} is evaluated in order until some of them
returns \code{\#t}. When some \indexedsyntaxvarf{condition}{k} returns
\code{\#t} the expressions \indexedsyntaxvarf{expr}{k,1}, ...,
\indexedsyntaxvarf{expr}{k,m(k)} are evaluated in order. If the result type of the
\keyword{cond} expression is not \builtin{<none>} the value of the
last expression \indexedsyntaxvarf{expr}{k,m(k)} is returned as the value of the
\keyword{cond} expression. If none of the conditions return \code{\#t}
and \syntaxvarf{else-clause} is present the expressions
\indexedsyntaxvarf{else-expr}{1}, ...,
\indexedsyntaxvarf{else-expr}{p} are evaluated in
order. If the result type of the
\keyword{cond} expression is not \builtin{<none>} the value of the
last expression \indexedsyntaxvarf{else-expr}{p} is returned as the value of the
\keyword{cond} expression.


\macrodef{and}


\startmacrosyntax
\begin{syntaxblock}
  \slp \skeyword{and} \indexedsyntaxvar{arg}{1} \sldots
  \indexedsyntaxvar{arg}{n} \srp
\end{syntaxblock}


The type of each \indexedsyntaxvarf{arg}{k} has to be
\builtin{<boolean>}.
The arguments are evaluated in order until some of the arguments
returns \code{\#f}. If all of the arguments return \code{\#t} the
result of the \keyword{and} expression is \code{\#t}. Otherwise the
result value is \code{\#f}. Note that all of the arguments are not
necessarily evaluated at all.


\macrodef{or}


\startmacrosyntax
\begin{syntaxblock}
  \slp \skeyword{or} \indexedsyntaxvar{arg}{1} \sldots
  \indexedsyntaxvar{arg}{n} \srp
\end{syntaxblock}


The type of each \indexedsyntaxvarf{arg}{k} has to be
\builtin{<boolean>}.
The arguments are evaluated in order until some of the arguments
returns \code{\#t}. If all of the arguments return \code{\#f} the
result of the \keyword{or} expression is \code{\#f}. Otherwise the
result value is \code{\#t}. Note that all of the arguments are not
necessarily evaluated at all.


\macrodef{cond-object}

  \indexedsyntaxvar{else-expr}{1}, \sldots,
  \indexedsyntaxvar{else-expr}{p} \srp
\end{syntaxblock}


This form works as \skeyword{cond} except all nonfalse values are
implemented as true in the conditions.
When a clause is of type \syntaxformulacmd{
  \slp \indexedsyntaxvar{condition}{k} \condarrow
  \indexedsyntaxvar{handler}{k} \srp}
expression \indexedsyntaxvarf{handler}{k} has to be a procedure
accepting a single argument. When this kind of clause is encountered
the \indexedsyntaxvarf{condition}{k} is evaluated and if its result is
not false it is passed to the procedure \indexedsyntaxvarf{handler}{k}
whose result is returned.

\startmacrosyntax
\begin{syntaxblock}
  \slp
  \skeyword{and-object}
  \syntaxvar{expression} ...

Start evaluating the argument expressions from the left. If any
argument returns \false\ stop the evaluation and return
\false. Otherwise return the value of the last expression.


\macrodef{or-object}

\startmacrosyntax
\begin{syntaxblock}
  \slp

The \keyword{let*} form is similar to \keyword{let} except that the
expressions \indexedobjectvarf{value}{k} are evaluated in order and
each expression may use the variables defined before it.


\macrodef{let*-mutable}

  \syntaxvar{let-body-expressions} \syntaxdefequal
  \syntaxelement{expression} \sldots

The \keyword{let*-volatile} form is similar to \keyword{let-volatile}
except that the expressions \indexedobjectvarf{value}{k} are evaluated

  \indexedsyntaxvar{else-expr}{1}, \sldots,
  \indexedsyntaxvar{else-expr}{q} \srp
\end{syntaxblock}


The clauses are processed in order. If \syntaxvar{value} is equal to
some of the keys for clause \(k\) in the sense of the equality
predicate \code{equal?} processing the clauses is stopped and
expressions \indexedsyntaxvar{expr}{k,j} are evaluated in order and the
value of the last of these expressions is returned as the value of the
\code{case} expression.
If none of the clauses match and the else clause is present the
expressions \indexedsyntaxvar{else-expr}{j} are evaluated in order and
the value of the last of these expressions is returned.
If none of the clauses match and the else clause is not present the
\code{case} expression returns nothing.


\macrodef{do}

  \indexedobjectvar{init-value}{k}
  \indexedobjectvar{update-expr}{k} \srp \\
  \indexedsyntaxvar{var-name}{k} \syntaxdefequal \syntaxelement{identifier} \\
\end{syntaxblock}


The type of \syntaxvarf{condition} has to be \builtin{<boolean>}. At the
beginning of each iteration \syntaxvarf{condition} is evaluated. If it
returns \code{\#t} the iteration is stopped and the value of
\syntaxvarf{result-expression} is returned as the result of the
\keyword{do} expression. Otherwise the body expressions are
evaluated in order, variables \indexedsyntaxvarf{var-name}{k} are
assigned new values obtained by evaluating each
\indexedsyntaxvarf{update-expr}{k} in order, and the next iteration is
started from the beginning. If \syntaxvar{result-type} is not
specified the type of the
\keyword{do} expression is \builtin{<none>}.

The syntax of \indexedsyntaxvarf{clause}{k} and
\syntaxvarf{else-clause} is similar to the same syntax elements in
\keyword{cond} form, see section \ref{subsec:cond}.
When a \keyword{guard} form is executed it starts evaluating the body
expressions in order. If an exception is raised during the body
expression evaluation do the following:
\begin{itemize}
  \item Bind the variable \syntaxvarf{exception-variable} to the
    exception.
  \item
    Evaluate conditions in clauses \indexedsyntaxvarf{clause}{k} in
    order. When the first condition returns true evaluate the
    corresponding clause expressions and return the value of the last
    expression as the value of the \keyword{guard} expression.
  \item
    If none of the conditions returns true evaluate the
    \syntaxvarf{else-clause} and return its value as the value of the
    \keyword{guard} expression.
  \item
    If none of the conditions returns true and
    \syntaxvarf{else-clause} is not present reraise the exception to
    be handled by the surrounding exception handler.
\end{itemize}
The conditions, condition expressions, and the body expressions have
to be pure and not \code{<none>}.

\chapter{Module \code{(standard-library stream)}}


Streams are kind of abstract sequences. A stream is defined by the
following operations:
\begin{itemize}
\item \textit{stream-value:} Return the current value of the stream.
\item \textit{stream-next:} Read one stream element forward and return
  the stream with the new element as its current value.
\item \textit{stream-empty?:} Return true iff the stream is empty.
\end{itemize}
See programs \code{test451.thp}, \code{test452.thp}, and
\code{test453.thp} in directory \code{theme-d-code/tests} for
examples.

Nonpure iterators are needed in following cases:
\begin{itemize}
  \item The operation done to the values yielded by iterators has side
    effects, e.g. printing.
  \item The generation of values for an iterator has side effects,
    e.g. reading values from a file.
\end{itemize}

\methoddef{display}{<output-port> <object>}{<none>}
\methoddef{display}{<output-port> <null>}{<none>}
\methoddef{display}{<output-port> <boolean>}{<none>}
\methoddef{display}{<output-port> <integer>}{<none>}
\methoddef{display}{<output-port> <real>}{<none>}
\methoddef{display}{<output-port> <string>}{<none>}
\methoddef{display}{<output-port> <character>}{<none>}
\methoddef{display}{<output-port> <symbol>}{<none>}
\methoddef{display}{<output-port> <pair>}{<none>}

These methods display an object as a string in the specified port.

\indexmethod{write}

\noindent
\methoddef{write}{<output-port> <object>}{<none>}
\methoddef{write}{<output-port> <null>}{<none>}
\methoddef{write}{<output-port> <boolean>}{<none>}
\methoddef{write}{<output-port> <integer>}{<none>}
\methoddef{write}{<output-port> <real>}{<none>}
\methoddef{write}{<output-port> <string>}{<none>}
\methoddef{write}{<output-port> <character>}{<none>}
\methoddef{write}{<output-port> <symbol>}{<none>}
\methoddef{write}{<output-port> <pair>}{<none>}

These methods write the external representation of an object to the
specified port for primitive objects.


You may define methods \code{write} and \code{display} for your own
classes. It is usually better to define method \code{object->string}
instead of method \code{display}.  Note that generic procedure
\code{write} calls \code{display} by default.

\chapter{Module \code{(standard-library extra-math)}}


This module implements wrapper procedures to many of the mathematical
functions in standard C. Additionally, some helper procedures and
methods are defined.  This module works only for the target platform
Guile.


\section{Wrapper Procedures for Standard C Functions}


The following procedures are wrappers to the corresponding functions
in the standard C (without the prefix ``\code{r-}''):

\shortpureprocdef{fpclassify}{<real>}{<integer>}
\shortpureprocdef{r-isnormal?}{<real>}{<boolean>}
\shortpureprocdef{r-signbit}{<real>}{<integer>}


Procedure \code{frexp} returns the fraction of its argument in the
head of the result and the exponent in the tail. Procedure \code{modf}
returns the fractional part of its argument in the head of the result
and the integer part in the tail. There are no wrappers for
\code{isinf} and \code{isnan} since similar functions are defined
in the core module.

\chapter{Module \code{(standard-library hash-table)}}


This module is deprecated and works only for Guile target
platform. You should use module \code{(standard-library hash-table2)}
instead.

When a hash table is used the hash procedure and the equality
predicate used by the association procedure must be compatible with
each other, i.e. the hash procedure shall never compute different hash
values for objects that are equal by the equality predicate.

When you create object, string, or symbol hash tables you have to
manually dispatch the value type. For example to create a string hash
table with symbols as the value type use code

\begin{codeblock}
  \noindent\hspace{0.5cm} ((param-proc-dispatch make-string-hash-table-with-size <symbol>) \\
  \mbox{ }\noindent\hspace{0.7cm} 100)

The hash procedure of an object hash table is compatible with the %
association procedure \code{assoc-objects1} with the following key
types:
\begin{itemize}
\item symbols
\item booleans
\item characters
\item strings
\item user defined nonprimitive classes
\item pairs
\item vectors (all four kinds of vectors)
\end{itemize}
Procedure \code{assoc-objects1} uses equivalence predicate
\code{equal-objects?}.  Note that if you use this class with string or
pair keys the keys are considered equal if they are the same object.

\chapter{Module \code{(standard-library statprof)}}


This is a wrapper module for guile profiler \code{statprof}.
Note that all features of \code{statprof} are not supported.
A simple use of \code{statprof} would look like this:
\begin{codeblock}
  \cl{0.5cm}
  (statprof-reset 0 50000 \#f) \\
  \cl{0.5cm}
  (statprof-start) \\
  \cl{0.5cm}
  (do-something) \\
  \cl{0.5cm}
  (statprof-stop) \\
  \cl{0.5cm}
  (statprof-display)
\end{codeblock}
See guile 2.0 documentation for further information.
